Gorgeous car. Black (or is it dark, dark green) is lovely when it is clean....

I had a black vehicle back in the late 80s / early 90s. It was so much work to keep clean, I swore I would never have another one....

Check out the Akebono ceramic pads whenever you need to replace the brake pads. They produce very little brake dust, if any.

the colored R badges on the seats, I dont think I have ever seen that, was that stock? I saw an STR the other day at the dealer that had two tone leather seats as well that was also a first. Nice car.

Red 5,

Gorgeous car! I have to echo an earlier comment on the wheels, they are great. Were they a special order item?

Check out Poorboysworld.com
they have a wheel sealant that makes cleaning your wheels much easier after it is applied to clean rim

Ask for Steve, tell him Flash sent you

Yes the 19" Barcelona Alloy Wheels were a $1200 option for the STR.

Nice car. I almost bought the Racing Green STR 03 but someone bought it first. Went with a Silver ST 4.2L V8. I need to post some pics soon too. Good luck
